    They won’t do it until one of their kids is a victim and suddenly it affects them personally. And even then, only one vote will change.

    That’s their M.O. They don’t care when their policies are actively hurting other people so long as they aren’t affected.

        Their stance is that conservatives are babies who took the miraculous and precious human ability to empathize with other beings and stunted it with with a bunch of half-assed morality stories about how the world is supposed to work that have nothing to do with reality.

        All kids are victimized but most conservatives don’t care until it’s their kid specifically. Kind of like most political issues that people who have empathy care about.
